I'll be going to Cabrera, thanks Mike.
I get confused by the WNW and WW.....
my eyes cross..........
lol.
a WW does not exist.
it is simple portions of the 360 degrees circle.
top(12 0'clock marg) is 0.
bottom(6 o'clock) is 180 degrees.
right(3 o'clock) is 90 degrees.
left(9o'clock) is 270 degrees.
0 = North.
right/90 degrees = East
bottom/180 degrees is South
left/270 degrees is West.
as all those weather maps are oriented with North/0 degrees on the Top, you can apply the directions(up, down, left, right) on all of thyem.
a Storm moving W means it mmove's from it's actual position straight to the left seide of your Map.
in Karl's case it's actual W(west) tracking means it is walking straight towards my doorstep/house.
a tracking NW means it wanders on a 315 degrees direction(10:30 on the clock circle).
WNW means to wander on a 292.5 degrees direction(9:45 on the clock circle.
so a NW heading means it wanders the same quickW as it does N.
WNW means it wanders twice as quick W than N etc etc.
even more confused now?
i thought so, lol.
Hey, it's sunday, no Storm coming to us and it is after 5PM.
let's grab a greenie and wait if the next days bring something up to watch.
Mike
